Recipe: Chocolate Tarts

With Peppermint Crème

These bite-sized chocolate tarts, filled with cool mint and silky chocolate, are like tiny presents for the mouth. They're made using mini phyllo shells, available in the frozen section of most supermarkets, which is a great way to portion out holiday desserts. The recipe, courtesy of McCormick, allows you to substitute raspberry or pure orange extract in lieu of peppermint, if desired. Prep time is about 20 minutes.
